Knicks vs. Warriors Odds Analysis
The Warriors opened as 6.5-point favorites, but the line has crept up to 7.5. Bettors favor Golden State, as 60% of tickets and 80% of cash are on the Warriors to cover the inflated spread. Neither team has been particularly effective on defense, so it’s no wonder 59% of tickets and 97% of cash are on the Over, which has moved from 232 all the way up to 235.

Knicks vs. Warriors ATS Pick
Warriors -7.5 (-107) ★★★★★
It’s been a disappointing season for Golden State so far, as the Warriors are one of the worst defenses in the NBA, and the team has yet to win a road game. Golden State has been much better at home and sports a 6-1 record at Chase Center straight up with a 4-3 record ATS. The Knicks have been formidable as road underdogs, covering in five of eight games in that situation. Losers of three straight, the Knicks are in desperate need of a win, but it will be tough to get one in San Francisco, the only haven of success for the Warriors thus far.
Knicks vs. Warriors O/U Pick
Under 234.5 (-110) ★★★★★
Coach Steve Kerr recently likened Golden State’s play this season to a Drew League game, highlighting just how dismal this defense has been. The Warriors rank 29th in points per game allowed at a whopping 118.3, while the Knicks aren’t far behind at 22nd, giving up 115.5. Even with these lofty totals surrendered, this line is quite high. The Warriors are 8-6-1 overall and 4-3 as home favorites, while the Knicks are 7-7-1 overall and 3-5-1 as the road underdogs. Golden State is 1-4-1 in its last six games, and the Knicks are 2-4. Golden State has hit the Under in its last three home games, and New York has gone Under in each of its last two road games.
Knicks vs. Warriors Prop Pick
Steph Curry Over 41.5 points + rebounds + assists (-130) ★★★★★
Curry’s Pts/Reb/Ast prop is set at 42.5 on FanDuel, but we can get it at 41.5 on DraftKings with favorable odds. Curry is averaging career highs in points and rebounds this season while posting 46 Pts/Reb/Ast per game. He’s hit the Over in nine of 14 games this season and seven of his last 10. Draymond Green, Klay Thompson and Jordan Poole have not played well this season, so it’s been up to Curry to carry the load, which we expect him to do again tonight.
